The fall of E3 left a boulevard for the organization of the Summer Game Fest. Geoff Keighley’s festival opens this Thursday with a conference that is expected to be tough.
For all gaming fans, summer is a crucial time, with the month of June marking the opening of the summer video game season. Hostilities begin this week with the opening night of the Summer Game Fest organized once again by Geoff Keighley. This video game festival provides us with big announcements in the context of various conferences, the program and content of which are detailed below.
The Summer Game Fest 2023 has been announced for June 8, live from the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles. Of course, the particularity of the Summer Game Fest lies in its festival form. The June 8 broadcast will not be the only video game and innovation-oriented event of the summer of 2023, and each major publisher should organize its own Summer Game Fest evening. As a reminder, in 2022, the official Summer Game Fest evening was the biggest event of the year, with announcements around Starfield, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and The Last of Us.

What to expect from Summer Game Fest 2023?
The Summer Game Fest 2023 has finally taken the place of E3, after the final cancellation of the event at the three Es last spring. The more traditional of the two, namely E3, has been snubbed by three of the biggest players in the industry, if not the three biggest. Xbox, Nintendo and Sony. Absences that precipitated his dramatic fall. A good operation for the Summer Game Fest since Sony’s State of Play, Nintendo Direct and Xbox & Bethesda Showcase can all be included in its program, and constitute the most important moments of this summer video game season. For many, Starfield will be at the heart of the questions on June 11 during the Starfield Direct from Xbox and Bethesda.
